The Transmitr Lets Cyclists Wirelessly Control Their Lights
Rahul Kalvapalle — April 17, 2015 — Tech
The Transmitr is a system that allows cyclists to wirelessly control multiple lights from a single, handle-bar mounted remote control. T
he setup includes a 700-lumen Ion 700 RT headlight and a 65-lumen Flare RT tail light. Both the lights are fully USB rechargeable and can be switched on or off or set to different modes via the remote control. The lights can also be operated directly featuring physical controls located on them.
Interestingly, if two Transmitr tail lights are used side-by-side, the system allows them to be used as turn indicators. This is a fantastic function that avid cyclists will appreciate, as it's often difficult and potentially dangerous to take a hand off your handlebar to signal a turn on a busy street.
